Q

CAS

A

A cohort analytic study may be more ethical, participants will be able to choose to use indoor tanning beds (experimental) or not to use indoor tanning beds (control). It would be hard to keep patients involved in the study and would cost a lot of money to go for a long time

Q

case-control studies

A
  • to answer the question before
  • observational studies that begin by identifying participants who have the outcome of interest and participants w.o then looking back in time to see whether the participants had the risk factors or casual factors associated with the outcome

Q

how is case control different

A

This is different than a RCT or cohort analytic study design where participants are selected to bein the study and followed forward prospectively in time to see if they develop the outcome

Q

cohort studies

A

a study in which a group of people wjo do not have evidence of the outcome of interest but are exposed to the presumed cause are followed in time to see if they develop the outcome; there is no comparison group
- no random allocation

Q

grounded theory

A

The process that shape behavior and interaction

24
Q

Ethnographic Study

A

The cultural knowledge, norms, values that influence experiences or patterns of behavior within a culture

25
Q

The aim of phenomenology approach is to…

A

DESCRIBE accurately the lived experiences of people and not to generate theories or models of the phenomena being studied.

26
Q

The goal of ethnography is to…

A

LEARN about a culture from the people who live in that culture.

27
Q

Purpose of grounded theory is to…

A

DISCOVER the social-psychological processes.

28
Q

Inductive reasoning

A

uses data to generate ideas

29
Q

deductive reasoning

A

begins with the idea and uses the data to confirm or negate the idea

30
Q

32
Q

Qualitative Studys: Types of information

A
  • observation
  • interviews
  • documents
  • audiovisual material
33
Q

Qualitative Study: Homogeneous sampling

A
  • participants provide similar stories and experiences on the phenomenon
34
Q

Qualitative Study: Heterogeneous sampling

A

-participants provide different stories and experiences regarding a phenomenon

35
Q

Qaulitative Study: Snowball Sampling

A
  • no sample frame exists

- access to a particular group may be difficult for cultural or social reasons

36
Q

Qualitative Sampling: Theoretical Sampling

A

aims to seek out data that can challenge a theory and help develop other ideas and hypotheses

37
Q

Which type of sampling is grounded theory associated with?

A

theoretical sampling

38
Q

Qualitative: Investigator Triangulation

A

Requires that > 1 investigator collect and analyse the data, such that the findings emerge through consensus between or among investigators. This is typically accomplished by an investigative team. Inclusion of team members from different disciplines helps to prevent personal or disciplinary biases of a single researcher from excessively influencing the findings.

39
Q

Qualitative: Theory Triangulation

A

Is a process whereby emergent findings are examined in relation to existing social science theories. It is conventional for authors to report how their qualitative findings relate to prevailing social theory, although some qualitative researchers suggest that such theories should not be used to guide the research design or analysis.

40
Q

Qualitative: Member Checking

A

Some researchers seek clarification and further explanation of their developing analytic framework from study participants, a step known as member checking. Most commonly, researchers specify that member checking was done to inquire whether participants’ viewpoints were faithfully interpreted, to determine whether there are gross errors of fact, and to ascertain whether the account makes sense to participants with different perspectives.

41
Q

What do cross sectional designs examine?

A
  • examines a characteristic and the outcome of interest in participants at one point in time, sometimes referred to as a survey study
42
Q

What is measured at the same point in time within cross sectional designs?

A
  • examines a characteristic and the outcome of interest in participants at one point in time, sometimes referred to as a survey study
  • Data on exposure and outcome are collected/ measured at the same point in time, on the same participants
43
Q

What can cross sectional designs only tell us about?

A

It is important to note that these studies can only tell us about associations between exposures and outcomes

44
Q

What can cross sectional designs only tell us about?

A

It is important to note that these studies can only tell us about associations between exposures and outcomes

45
Q

Quantitative Studies only using one group are called

A
  • case study

- cross sectional

A

cohort study

48
Q

Which studies in quantitative studies choose participants based on having the particular outcome or not?

A

Which study has only one group with more than one person being involved?

Q

Which study is experimental when people are randomly allocated?

A

-RCT

Q

Which study involves non experimental studies with people being allocated but not randomly

A

Q

Which studies examine the effectiveness of a prevention or treatment/therapy interventions?

A

Which studies examine the cause/etiology of a problem/condition/disease

A
  • RCT
  • CAS
  • Case control study
  • cross sectional study

Q

Which studies examines the course/prognosis of a problem/condition/disease/situation?

A
  • cohort study
